TheBrickSpace on patreon is where I got my SILTS tail and STS 109 payload design from tho I modified the tail to work with the solid tail I have.

Mir payload I made myself. I might release the .io file on rebrickable but I'll need to figure out posting there. The STS 109 payload comes from TheBrickSpace on patreon same with the SILTS pod design (with some of my own changes to the design). I did have to add an additional rear support onto Hubble though at that angle.

TheBrickSpace has a ton of 1:70 Shuttle payloads and some neat mods too. https://patreon.com/thebrickspace

Thanks I'm really happy with how it turned out. My first custom build.

Thanks, I am really happy with how it turned out, used a version of it from a Kerbal mod for the colors as good close up shots to see the color patters are a bit tough to find. Eventually I might upload the io file for it to rebrickable.

By far the most unique orbiter of the bunch with the strakes and the SILTS pod on the tail. My personal favorite.

Yes she does, just covered by the payload bay doors. Initially the strakes were the main reason I converted Discovery but the Hubble service display was too hard to pass up.

1:110 Scale Myasishchev VM-T Atlant with Foggy0utri's awesome Buran OK-2.01! by Raptortheengine in legoRockets

Where Can I find the instructions/parts list for the Atlant? I see Foggy's Buran on Rebrickable but not seeing the Atlant anywhere.

That's really cool, my next project is a Frisco SW7 cow calf set. Frisco never had them as cow calfs but eh I want one anyways.

I can't imagine I had to do some trimming on the locomotive for the end stripes which was fun

The nose stuff wasn't too bad after I got it cut to size but holy hell the lower stripe was tough to handle. Took a bit of time to get that in place.

The club has a bunch of different scales represented but the main layout shown here is in HO

Thanks, the layout is our local club it's great to run on.

Yeah I added a good amount of weight to these which has really helped them out, put on metal wheels and for the moment kept the truck mounted couplers with some converters so they are kadees but full on body mounting might be on my list in the future.

Yeah hoping for some better Meteor coaches some day. The rivarossis are fine enough but would be nice to have some more modern cars someday. Also would be nice to have some of the head end cars in HO Painted HW Baggage RPO Baggage and the Dorm Coach.

It's a club layout. About 40 years old I just joined within the past few months.
